How to connect Google Cloud Firestore and Formaloo
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud Firestore and Formaloo
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Cloud Firestore, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Cloud Firestore or Formaloo will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud Firestore or Formaloo, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Cloud Firestore Node
Select the Google Cloud Firestore node from the app selection panel on the right.
